Question

A group of virtual machines on a five-node vSAN OSA cluster have the vSAN Default Storage Policy assigned to them. This policy has not been modified from its default settings to date. The vSAN administrator would like to reduce the amount of storage capacity consumed by these virtual machines. Which action will produce this result?

Options

  • AReduce the "Number of disk stripes per object" from 3 to 2 in the vSAN Default Storage Policy.
  • BAssign a policy with "Object space reservation" set to "50%и to the virtual machines.
  • CAssign a new policy with "Failures to tolerate" set to "1-Failure - RAID-5 (Erasure Coding)" to the
  • DSet "Failures to tolerate" in the vSAN Default Storage Policy to "2-Failures - RAID-1 (Mirroring)".

Explanation

The default vSAN storage policy uses RAID-1 (Mirroring) for "1 Failure to Tolerate," which doubles storage consumption by maintaining two full copies of data. Changing the policy to RAID- 5 (Erasure Coding) while still providing the same fault tolerance reduces the amount of raw capacity required (approximately 1.33x overhead instead of 2x). This change maintains resilience while reducing storage usage across the vSAN OSA cluster.
